Fran Ansley, recently retired from UT law school, will be speaking at Maryville College on Monday, April 28 at 7pm in Lawson Auditorium in Fayerweather Hall. This program is sponsored by the Blount County League of Women Voters.
Fran is a tireless advocate for human rights and her talk (“Labor Rights Meet Global Wrongs: The Search for a Fair and Humane Immigration Policy") promises to be both engaging and instructive.
